Hubby was on the USS Midway when they pulled the Amb out of Nam, they were hauling Jolly Greens out. A small plane with a “friendly” family flew over, and dropped a note on down, and they had to clear the deck of the Jolly Greens so he could land. The little plane is at the Naval Museum at Pensacola.

He retired after 20 yrs as a SCPO, would have made MCPO if not for a accident during Evals that put him in the Navy hospital with his broken jaw wired shut for 35 days, and the Military does not do MAKE up exams.
